Is there any way to determine if an object is a generic list? I’m not going to know the type of the list, I just know it’s a list. How can I determine that?

    This will return ‘True’

    List<int> myList = new List<int>();  Console.Write(myList.GetType().IsGenericType && myList is IEnumerable); 

    Do you care to know if it’s exactly a ‘List’… or are you ok with it being IEnumerable, and Generic?
